What could cause back ache for a woman of about 22 weeks of pregnancy (my cousin's wife)? ??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Center of gravity: Most likely, her changing center of gravity (enlarging pregnant uterus) is pulling her back forward and causing a strain. A belly sling can help lift the uterus off the pelvic and may give some relief. A search for "belly sling" on Amazon.com will show you some examples. Floating in a pool can also bouy the baby up off the pelvis and can help with low back pain & swelling.
